The robin is a small songbird known for its bright orange-red breast and cheerful singing. It belongs to the family Turdidae and is commonly found in gardens, parks, and forests across North America and Europe. Robins are often seen hopping on the ground, searching for insects and worms to eat. These birds are migratory, meaning they travel long distances between their breeding and wintering grounds. In spring, they return to their nesting areas, where they build cup-shaped nests made of grass and mud. The American robin is one of the most recognized species, often considered a symbol of spring.
